Loving Kyle by Kasey Millstead

The tough times don’t define you. It’s how you
respond to them that does.

Liv

Six years ago, my world was turned upside down with the ring
of my phone and a gravelly voice on the other end. For months afterward,
I felt like I surely wouldn’t make it through another day. Then my
daughter was born. A bundle of joy, bright enough to light my dreary
days, with a glow that warmed my aching heart. I’ve lived for her
ever since.

As I stand here, staring at the man who looks so much
like him, but is still so different, I find myself contemplating
living for me, just for a little while…

Kyle

Honorably discharged from the army after five tours to
Afghanistan, I’m back in my home town and working as a Basic Combat Training
instructor.

Falling in love with Liv was never part of the plan, but as
time goes by and wounds are healed, the wall erected between us slowly starts
to crumble. But Liv isn’t the type to give in easily. Then I
remember I’m an American soldier.

I will never accept defeat. I will never quit.

It’s time she realized she’s mine.

“Deep down, I know two things for sure. One, my
heart, head and gut all direct me to Kyle. Two, I’m going to continue
ignoring them.”

good book and getting lost in the world of Happy Ever After.
